On the brighter side…

… ’twas a nice weekend. Saturday I had a nice Salon, then rushed to the Colonel Fuddy Duddy show to play a Loose-Rope Walker. The crowd was not terribly enthused, but I’m told it was better than previous weeks. And I played a guest character for the first time, which is an interesting experience. I got taunted by a child volunteer, who called me a “Loose-Rope Chicken” and made chicken noises and actions. Which was fine, since the character is an a-feared one.

Afterwards, we futzed around until Stacey headed out to see Debby Does Dallas: The Musical at Dad’s (which is reportedly very good). Roan and I played around until his bedtime, and after he drifted off I watched the first few episodes of FireFly from a DVD loaned by .

Man, do I like that show. Cowboys and spaceships and really, really good writing. Woo-eee!

I can’t believe it was cancelled, but I’m glad to hear there’s a movie coming out next year. Here’s to it not sucking.

Sunday, Stacey headed to the investment club while Roan and I went shopping. Afterwards, we all hit the zoo with and family. Roan likes elephants, and the bird show is pretty good, too.

Roan zonked out on the way home and slept for over an hour, which unfortunately led to a new record in Amount-Of-Time-It-Takes-Roan-To-Go-To-Sleep-At-Night. I spent an hour and a half trying to get him conked out, until Stacey took a shift and finally had him asleep another half-hour later. He’s added “My stuffed cow needs another drink of water” to his delay tactics.

When Stacey took over, I watched another episode of Firefly and then hit the sack.

Did I mention that’s a good show?

It is.
